Gooood Friday Morning DU!

[BlondieK143]

How is everyone this F-I-N-E morning? I'm good, it's rainy here which sucks because it was so pretty yesterday! What are your plans for the weekend? :donut:

[Champ]

1. Hi

My body feels like shit but other then that I'm F-I-N-E! I found a bunch of smilies I lost when I reformatted, but I had alot more so now I can do this!

[BlondieK143]

10. Awww how cute!

How did the interview go? Why do you feel like shit? :hug:

[Champ]

23. The interview went great

I come in there he tells me it will be very short, so he starts off asking me a few questions. I convinced him I great a work ethic(I think I do), and I think I gave a few good answers to some of the other questions he asks. He then says I see you best fit in one of the management training positions and goes over the details and asks me if I could see myself or interested in doing that. I said definately. They way he was talking it was as if I already got the job. He then asks me how old I was, I told him my age and he just looks at me for a few seconds. Then he is like "Oh.... wow..." then asks me when I turn 18(ironically my birthday is a day before his) then he writes down his number and says "Please(out of all the applications I filled out, one person says please) give me a call if you're still on the market when you turn 18, I would be very interested in having someone like you working for us." Anyways I was disappointed but felt great I did so well at the same time, I guess it's back to filling out more apps.

The 2nd question. I felt like shit because when I was waiting for the bus, when it arrived I pulled some change out of my pocket, only 30 cents. (it costs 60) So I had to walk 18 freakin' blocks in 105+ degree weather, I did stop by Morgan's house but she wasn't home. So when I got home I seen that I had a sunburn on the top of my head, that has never happened to me before. I was so exhausted I crashed out when I got home so I didn't take pics, probaly today I will. Also I have a pain in my lower left leg, funny thing, my neck feels ok. :hug:

[BlondieK143]

26. Well, that rocks!

When will you be 18?? At least you know that you'll have a position (hopefully) there. That's awesome!

I'm sorry! That sucks! If it makes you feel better - my back and chest are sunburnt too. :(

[Champ]

33. -

Sunburns suck! :( I also have one on my back as well.

I'll turn 18 November 29th(a long ways away), yesturday in the "What is your age thread" I don't know if you seen it but I put something like I am happy with who I am, I just wish I was 18. Reason why because I can do alot of things, I just can't do them because I'm not 18. That wasn't the first time something like that has happened, ironically yesturday was just an example of what I was talking about.

[BlondieK143]

35. That's true!

But when you turn 18, you'll be wishing you were 21 because there are a lot of things you still are unable to do at 18. That's how it is with me anyways. :shrug: (I'm not just talking about the drinking thing).

[Champ]

38. I'll probaly be happy just being 18

What else is there that you can't do besides purchasing alcohol? I know some jobs require to you be a little older but I don't know other then that. Another thing I won't be able to vote either by 24 days or so, that sucks. :(

[BlondieK143]

40. A lot of places

requre 21. (i.e. salsa bars - okay, so I'm a big fan). And a lot of places in our downtown you have to be 21 to even walk around.

[Champ]

48. Salsa Bars!!

:D

That's interesting. So what are your plans for the day.

PS. Sorry it took so long to reply, my PC decided to give me a hard time when I tried to post a reply earlier.

[BlondieK143]

52. Are you makin' fun of me?

lol. Just because I'm a chubby white girl doesn't mean I can't salsa!

[Champ]

53. lol no

I was just complimenting you on your taste, I like some pretty wierd things myself. Again... what are your plans for today? :)

[BlondieK143]

55. Um, work, work, and more work.

I get off work in about an hour, going home to sleep for 3 hours, take a shower, come back into work, work until 9, then either have a few friends over at the house or just pass out. You?

[Champ]

61. Well...

I am extremely exhausted, I feel like just resting today. Plus all the pain my body feels right now I sooo feel like taking a warm bath Maybe I'll end up being lazy the whole day, all I have to do is watch and learn from my dogs so that can't be too hard. I'll stop by a friend's house briefly around noon. Later on if someone comes over I may go out and do something, hopefully whoever does come, comes when the sun goes down. I may take a today.

[BlondieK143]

62. Sounds like fun!

And I looooove the bubble bath smiley! He's adorable! Definitely could use one of those. Have fun in whatever you do today!

[Champ]

65. You too

Can work be fun? I guess it can if you like your job. You could use one? That's F-I-N-E, I'll start one up for you right away! :)

[BlondieK143]

66. lol

and no, you can't join. :P

[Champ]

67. lol

Why not? I was willing to give you a full body massage because you said you were sore too! Maybe if I dance you'll let me?

[BlondieK143]

68. Tempting..

But no. I'm sure it would offend the man. :D

[Champ]

69. Ok...

How about I leave on my and you still get the massage? :D

[BlondieK143]

70. I'm all out of time lol

:) Talk to you later!

[Champ]

71. Ok

I'll see you tomorrow.

[Guy_Montag]

2. Hiya Blondie,

:hi:
I'm off to my folks house to try to fix my car, so I can start using it now that the weather's better.

How about you?

[BlondieK143]

12. Good luck!

Do you know what's wrong with it??

I'm good other than being sore. Thanks for asking! :hug:

[Guy_Montag]

21. Yeah, I'm replacing all the fuel lines

It's not a big or hard job, but my folks live a couple of hours away.

Then I have to get it back here without breaking down, that's fun bit.

Still keeping up your exercises? I'm impressed, I do a few every evening, nothing much, just trying to tone my bum & tummy a little.

[BlondieK143]

25. Well hopefully it won't break down on you!

That would REALLY suck! What are you driving? You can bond with the parentals as well. :) Nothing better than mom's cooking!

I've been trying to do at least 40 minutes of exercise a day. Yesterday I went to the pool and did laps for awhile. hehe toning your bum.. hehe. That's amusing. :)

[Guy_Montag]

34. I'm used to breaking down now,

it's happened 3 times now. (3 major break downs) I think I've saved more in petrol getting towed places than my breakdown cover costs. I was driving from Cambridge to Edinburgh (about 350 miles) & broke down 20 miles out of Cambridge - I got towed the rest of the 330 miles. tee hee.

My car is a shiny, 1966 Triumph Spitfire, fun to drive, but only if you don't have to get where your going.

[BlondieK143]

36. Man that sucks!

Bet the towing bill on THAT one was fun. /sarcasm

Isn't the point of having a car that you have to be somewhere? :D

[Guy_Montag]

39. I have breakdown insurance, thank goodness

I use my bike (pedal) or the train to go places. My car is for fun, for driving around small roads on warm summer days, with the wind in my hair and a beautiful girl in the passenger seat. Then stopping somewhere nice for a picnic, a smooch and a walk. Eventually stopping off at a country pub or restuarant for dinner on the way home.

Aaahhh

[BlondieK143]

42. Sounds like a blast!

Nothing like wind in your hair and beautiful girls. :D That's pretty much how I feel on the back of a motorcycle with a hot guy to grab onto. ;)

[Guy_Montag]

59. Going for lunch

will scan in some photos of my car while I'm there.

[BlondieK143]

63. Cool!

Ya must share! :D

[Dying Eagle]

3. Good Mourning

TGIF, I have a great weekend ahead of me and I can't wait for it to start. Give me the strength to make it thorough today!!

[BlondieK143]

13. Awesome!

Have a great weekend and *sends you strength* (hope that helps lol). :hug:

[neverborn]

4. Starting restaurant training every day this weekend :(

Ah, the joys of a summer job :p

[BlondieK143]

14. Good luck with that!

Are you a server?

[neverborn]

No.

Have to be 19 to serve alcohol. I got stuck bussing tables. Oh well, money is money?

[BlondieK143]

27. Definitely!

You'll be able to have extra cash this summer so that's cool (or at least that's what I tell myself about my job lol).

[Political_Junkie]

5. Woohoo! Finally Friday!

And it's not raining here! Not sunny either, but I'll take it. :hi:

[BlondieK143]

15. Lucky!

That's not fair! Oh well. :shrug: Any big plans for the weekend?

[Political_Junkie]

22. Of course it's fair, we've had two weeks of rain,

someone else needs to take a turn.
Never any big plans for the weekend, some puttering around the house, but nothing too strenuous. My days off are dear to me. :-)

[BlondieK143]

29. Okay, nevermind!

I'll take the rain for a few days from you. But THAT'S IT! :)

[Political_Junkie]

31. Deal, I'll settle for a couple of days.

Gotta get to work, see ya all later. :hug:

[Crazy_Horse]

6. Good Morning!

[cleofus1]

9. good morning everyone

Just did the "fat boy mall walk". I managed to do 3.6 miles in one hour. My heartrate was up to 130/60 I think.
It's 3:09 am and 50 degrees, very light breeze with high clouds...
whew...I'm sweating and just a little out of breath...but I feel good.
Well the one sure sign that you're getting old is that the skinny little neice that used to throw rocks at your head gets married...boy am I feeling old!

[cleofus1]

17. boy she shore did grow up good!

She just graduated from college and married a real swell guy (so I'm told). This is what professional wedding pictures look like.

[BlondieK143]

20. How beautiful!

She's gorgeous!

[cleofus1]

28. yes she is...

obviously beauty runs in the family!



although I think it ran away from me...

[BlondieK143]

30. hehe

Bet all the ladies are lined up out your door!

[cleofus1]

32. yeah...

but the wife won't let me have a girlfreind...she just doesn't understand:spank:

[BlondieK143]

37. She's a wise woman!

And she's a lucky one at that!

[cleofus1]

44. boy blondie...

you sure do know how to flatter a guy.
I'm short fat and I dress funny but you still manage to throw a compliment my way. You are the perfect hostess...

[BlondieK143]

45. *blush*

Correction, you're a perfectly nice gentleman who always makes everyone else feel comfortable (with a sense of humor to match). And that is why I love having you in the morning threads! :hug:

[BlondieK143]

18. Damn!

That's awesome!!! 3.6 miles, that's GREAT! :hug: Keep up the good work! Hope you have a great weekend and don't work too hard!

[Earth_First]

11. GOOOOD MORNING!

I wish Friday had some sort of relevance this week. I am working both Satruday and Sunday this weekend, 13 days straight. So my Weekend won't have any relevance until next Saturday. But the greenbacks are nice...

Aside from my rant, GOOD MORNING BLONDIE! B-)

[BlondieK143]

19. Boy do I understand!

13 days straight huh? That's not cool, you need a break! I feel your pain though, I have to work 9 hours on both Saturday and Sunday. Guess it pays the bills though. Don't work too hard and hopefully you'll get to have a little fun inbetween work schedules! :hug:

[Brewman_Jax]

41. G'day, Blondie!

:hug:
Glad the rains are gone for the weekend! How do you feel today?

[BlondieK143]

43. Sore as hell!

Yeah, I think you passed the rain onto us! Ready for the big weekend??

And I'm very sore. Did laps at the pool yesterday for awhile. Not only am I sore but I'm sunburnt too lol.

[Brewman_Jax]

46. Oh, no!

The skies have been clear here all week. That front came down from the midwest.

New month, new miles. Ran 4 mi, relatively level path. Long run tomorrow, and the knee feels good! Pain pills help.


BTW, as we say at RenFest, Get thee some fresh sunscreen!

[BlondieK143]

50. Ah! Gotcha!

All I know is that I may have to swim home from work. :eyes:

That's really awesome! 4 miles?? WOW. I have problems doing one! :yourock: Pain pills? Whew. Now that's what'll make me go to sleep!

Speaking of Ren, what kind of activities are you going to do this weekend during? And yeah, sunscreen is for wusses! :D

[Brewman_Jax]

60. I checked the radar

Hopefully you won't have to swim, just wade.

These pills are natural and don't knock you out. It's the run itself that knocks me out.

I'll try for 6 miles in the mornng. Then I'm gonna fire up the grill tomorrow and try my hand at grilling all day. And, yes, I have a bucket of water at hand. Then I'll go to watch the soccer match, and last day of RenFest on Sunday. I'll be the cavalier in my big plumed hat.

And use that sunscreen. You don't want to be 25 and look 42, do ya?

[BlondieK143]

64. Aren't you mister cute guy?

lol. Swim, wade, it's all the same. I'll get wet either way!

If I ran for 4 miles, I'd be a little more than knocked out. I think you'd have to take my happy ass to the ER and let them try to revive me.

6 miles?!?!? SERIOUSLY?!? You definitely have to let me know how that turns out for you. GOOD LUCK! Grilling huh? What's on the menu? Think you can overnight some of that my way? :)

25?? What's that?? 42?? What's that??

[Brewman_Jax]

72. It can't get worse

Looks like the rain is moving away, so you should have a relatively dry afternoon.

For a run, 10k equals 6.2mi, so I need to be able to run that--and for playing soccer, too. I can do it! :thumbsup:

The grill is a freebie table top with no controls a friend gave me when he moved. Cooking well is gonna take practice. I'm just now lighting the fire well. I should be ready for company in about 3 more weekends. Menu: fish, shrimp, grilled veggies, grilled tofu (had to try), poblano peppers, stuffed and not stuffed.

I forgot, you're such a youngling you're invincible! :P

[BlondieK143]

73. I am NOT a youngling!

I may only be 18, but I'm old at heart (no kidding, I've got the bad knees to prove it). :D

6.2 miles. Damn. I'm sorry, that just hurts me even thinking about it! You can do it though, I have COMPLETE faith in you!

I wish I could say all that sounds reallly great, but I'm a pretty picky eater. BUT, if I were to eat that stuff, I'm sure your's would be the best! :hug:

[Brewman_Jax]

76. I'll work on the peppers

Most everyone likes stuffed peppers!

For the knees, are you familiar with glucosine and chondroitin? Studies have shown their effectiveness.

18? congrats! be young and enjoy it now, while you can still stay up all night and party! :party:

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

47. GOOOOOOOOOOOD MORNING Darlin!!!

My plans for this weekend are to COLLAPSE!!! I'm going to do nothing and it will be everything I dreamed it could be!!! How are you doing, sweetpea?

[BlondieK143]

51. How did you know I love being called darlin'?

It's so cute and so sweet. *blush* Yeah...

Collapse into your bed, right? When does the LOTR marathon start? Will it be accompanied by alcohol? lol. I'm doing pretty good, just sore. :) Wishing I didn't have to work this weekend!

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

54. I'm sorry you have to work hun

:hug: At least you're making money, right?? (I'm trying very hard to see the good side of this...)

I'm not sure when the LOTR will start, but it most definitely will involve alcohol and other substances. :evilgrin: Chances are good I won't be left alone though, and I'll probably wind up hanging out with the guys, but I suppose that's okay too. The girlfriend is out of town til Monday :-( so I should get some time in with them. Tuesday night we're all going out for my birthday and I'm taking Wednesday (the day of my birthday) off, so I'm in store for some good times. :-)

What've you been up to lately darlin?

(btw, I called you that once and you told me how much you liked it, so I keep doing it. :hi:)

[BlondieK143]

57. It's okay, it pays the bills!

Money is probably the only good thing about the situation. That, and it's going to rain all weekend so it's not like I would be able to do too much had I not been working. (I appreciate your positive attitude though - don't see too much of those these days.)

haha other substances?? Bad, bad, bad! :spank: It really sucks that your gf is out of town, I'm sorry to hear that. Now THAT would've made for an interesting weekend and lots of stories! (trying to control my jealousy hehe). You should definitely go chill with the boys. Isn't there some kind of game you guys could watch? lol

Haven't really been up to too much. Just working and trying not to miss my boy. Plus I'm trying to plan a trip to see him and that's always difficult when we're both not sure of what's going on. That's pretty much it with me. Boring life, I know.

Well you just be careful using that word and other cute ones! I could get spoiled!

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

74. It's okay...

you deserve to be spoiled, darlin! :hug:

where is your boy at anyway? Are you in a long distance relationship or is he only temporarily away?

[BlondieK143]

75. Me, deserve? Not sure about that one.

He's a marine stationed in Camp LeJeune, NC. :( And he's in a field op right now that was originally supposed to last 12 days (with British troops) and now it's turned into 21 days which messed up the weekend I had plans to see him. 'Tis okay, however, we're just rescheduling. He's about 8 hours away from me. It's really hard but at the same time, I couldn't see myself being with anyone but him.

(thanks for asking btw, I needed to get some of that off my chest)

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

77. You most certainly deserve it!!

And I'm terribly sorry to hear he's been detained. :hug: At least he's still in the country though, right?

Any time you need to vent, you are more than welcome to hit that little AIM buddy icon next to my name, okay darlin?

[0007]

56. G'morning sweetness, see your in a another one of your inter feel

good days?

Always a good day to share and help your mate with a problem.

[BlondieK143]

58. Hellllooo there!

Man, you guys are killing me with all the niceness today! Weird thing, I was actually in a bad mood this morning until I got to talk to all you lovely people! :hug:

How are you this morning??
